I’m an English Literature/ Creative Writing student at university, but I always struggle with poetry. I’m too matter of fact with my words, which works with my style in prose, but leaves a lot to be desired in my poems. It’s a style, nonetheless, and one that I suppose is not the most sophisticated, but easily accessible. I’ve left two poems below, one of which is a whimsical comedic piece and another which is slightly more serious.

honestly, i hate you

Kiss my arse for an apology
and then laugh at the hypocrisy.
I’m all I promised to be.
